CONSUMER INFORMATION

CONSUMER INFORMATION
There are two significant reasons for
knowing the serial number of your
machine:
1. When ordering parts, you can
give the number to your Yamaha
dealer for positive identification of
the model you own.
2. If your machine is stolen, the au-
thorities will need the number to
search for and identify your ma-
chine.
VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION
NUMBER
The vehicle identification number "1"
is stamped on the right of the steering
head pipe.

ENGINE SERIAL NUMBER


The engine serial number "1" is
stamped into the elevated part of the
right-side of the engine.

MODEL LABEL
The model label "1" is affixed to the
frame under the rider's seat. This in-
formation will be needed to order
spare parts.

FEATURES

OUTLINE OF THE FI SYSTEM
The main function of a fuel supply system is to provide fuel to the combustion chamber at the optimum air-fuel ratio in ac-
cordance with the engine operating conditions and the atmospheric temperature. In the conventional carburetor system,
the air-fuel ratio of the mixture that is supplied to the combustionchamber is created by the volume of the intake air and the
fuel that is metered by the jet used in the respective carburetor.
Despite the same volume of intake air, the fuel volume requirement varies by the engine operating conditions,such as ac-
celeration, deceleration, or operating under a heavy load. Carburetors that meter thefuel through the use of jets have been
provided with various auxiliary devices, so that an optimum air-fuel ratio can be achieved to accommodate the constant
changes in the operating conditions of the engine.
This model has adopted an electronically controlled fuel injection (FI) system, in place of the conventional carburetor sys-
tem. This system can achieve an optimum air-fuel ratio required bythe engine at all times by using a microprocessor that
regulates the fuel injection volume according tothe engine operating conditions detected by various sensors.

2. Throttle position sensor 8. Crankshaft position sensor

FEATURES

FI SYSTEM
The fuel pump delivers fuel to the fuel injector via the fuel filter. The pressure regulator maintains thefuel pressure that is
applied to the fuel injector at only 324 kPa (3.24 kgf/cm ² , 47.0 psi). Accordingly,when the energizing signal from the ECU
energizes the fuel injector, the fuel passage opens, causingthe fuel to be injected into the intake manifold only during the
time the passage remains open. Therefore, the longer the length of time the fuel injector is energized (injection duration),
the greater the volume of fuel that is supplied. Conversely, the shorter the length of time the fuel injector is energized (in-
jection duration), the lesser the volume of fuel that is supplied.
The injection duration and the injection timing are controlled by the ECU. Signals that are input from the throttle position
sensor, coolant temperature sensor, atmospheric pressure sensor, lean angle sensor, crankshaft position sensor, intake
air pressure sensor and intake air temperature sensor enable the ECU to determine the injection duration. The injection
timing is determined through the signals from the crankshaft position sensor. As a result, the volume of fuel that is required
by the engine can be supplied at all times in accordance with the driving conditions.

MAINTENANCE INTERVALS

REGULAR INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS


MAINTENANCE INTERVALS

• The following schedule is intended as a general guide to maintenance and lubrication. Bear in mind that such factors as
weather, terrain, geographical location, and individual usage will alter the required maintenance and lubrication intervals.
If you are a doubt as to what intervals to follow in maintaining and lubricating your machine, consult your Yamaha dealer.
• Periodic inspection is essential in making full use of the machine performance. The service life of the parts varies sub-
stantially according to the environment in which the machine runs (e.g., rain, dirt, etc.). Therefore, earlier inspection is
required by reference to the list below..

INSPECTION STEPS
Use the following steps for checking the possibility of the malfunctioning engine being attributable to ignition system failure
and for checking the spark plug which will not spark.
Spark → • *Clean or replace spark plug.

CHECKING THE ECU


1. Check:
• All electrical components.
2. Check:
• ECU installation status
Make sure that the ECU is in-
stalled correctly.

• The lean angle sensor is built into


the ECU.
• The lean angle sensor stops the en-
gine in case of a turnover.
• To ensure that the lean angle sen-
sor operates correctly, do not
change the installation position of
the sensor.

3. Check:
• ECU
If no fault is found, replace the
ECU.
